SWITCHED ON

Today I have nothing else
to read in the newspapers.
I have devoured all the news
(repeated in all of them)
that i could pass
from the second line.
Sometimes (too many times)
with the headlines
is enough
as you know where
they want to take you.

I find tragicomic
that so much
misery,
sadness,
crimes,
poverty,
and all sort of scarcities
are so well known to most of us.

I find depressing
that so much
corruption,
indolence,
dishonesty
and all sort of cruelties
are so common to most
governments.

Is it me the only one
who sees?
Is it me the only one
who cares?

Fuck,
I must be getting
crazy...

Do I?
